Description

rII\ 2331465 Partitioning Bracket Assembly For Golf Clubs Bag The present
invention relates to a partitioning bracket assembly, more particularly, to a partitioning bracket assembly for golf clubs bag. The partitioning bracket assembly is attached to the golf clubs bag and is provided with a plurality of openings and each of the openings is ready for receiving a golf club therein. Each of the golf clubs can be further positioned such that the golf club will not move around within the partitioning bracket unit.
When taking a strike to the ball, a most suitable golf club shall be selected to get the exact strike. However, selecting a suitable golf club is dependent to the following factors: striking angle, distance, par, wind, rain, terrain,... etc.. 'Accordingly, about 12 to 14 golf clubs have been provided for each strike. Each of the 14 golf clubs has special angle and length on its head and shaft. Those 14 golf clubs are received and disposed within a golf clubs bag for readily carrying.
Referring to Figure 1, the conventional golf clubs 1 11- k 1 G 4 bag is provided with a bag body which can be vertically stood. The inner space of the bag body is divided into six (6) receiving chambers by means of two traverse partitioning plates and a longitudinal partitioning plates. These partitioning plates are made from hard board covered with a fabric cover. Each of those six receiving chambers is ready for receiving two to three (2-3) golf clubs. However, the actual situation is not exact to what has intended. Especially when the golfer plays, the caddie controls the retrieving and storing of the golf clubs and the caddie conduct the work according to his/her own likes. As a result, normally the front receiving chambers are crowded with more than three golf clubs which will collide, interfere to each other. Even the putter is suspended thereof without touching the bottom of the bag body. Accordingly, it is easily to take an incorrect golf club since it is difficult to recognize the putter from other irons and woods. When an incorrect golf clubs is selected, it will be difficult to get a good strike. Besides, since all the golf clubs are disposed randomly, the golf clubs are easy to entangled from each other. It will be difficult to withdraw a desired one. Unless the entangling is cleared, the desired golf club is impossible to remove. This trivial and inconvenient way of taking the golf club may considerably 2 1,1 influence the mood of playing and final records.
In order to solve the problem described above, a partitioning pack has been provided, as clearly shown in Figure 2. The partitioning pack is configured by a soft 5 loop, connecting ring and golf club partitions. The soft loop is integrally molded from resilient material and configured with an olive shape. The soft loop is provided with a plurality of recesses for partitioning the golf clubs. The soft loop is further enveloped onto the connecting ring 10 which has an olive and circular board which has a given thickness. The connecting ring is further connected to the bag body. However, this conventional design may still be concluded with the following defects. The golf clubs partitions are configured with seven (7) recesses and each 15 of the recesses is intended to receive two (2) golf clubs therein. However, the caddie will not put the golf clubs according to the design principle. As a result, more than two (2) golf clubs have been inserted into a single recess. Consequently, interfering, colliding, difficult to recognize 20 the golf clubs and difficult to withdraw the desired golf club are still happened. The conventional problems are still left unsolved. Furthermore, this partitioning pack can not be directly installed onto an existing bag body. If 3 11 the golfer hopes to use this partitioning pack, a special golf clubs bag shall be tailored and this partitioning pack shall be stitched onto the tailored bag. The overall cost is quite high and the golfer having a conventional golf clubs bag is not possible to use this partitioning pack. Besides, a sharp edge is formed between the inner surface of the partitioning and the top surface of the partitioning, in order to prevent the shaft of the golf club be scratched by the sharpened edges, it is suggested to disposed the golf clubs vertically. As a result, the golfer can not dispose the golf club in an easy way.
It is the objective of this invention to provide a partitioning bracket assembly for golf clubs bag. The partitioning bracket unit is attached to the partitioning plates of the golf clubs bag and is provided with a plurality of openings. In the preferable embodiment, about fourteen openings are provided. Each of the openings is received with a golf club and each of the golf clubs is disposed therein according to the length of the shaft of the golf club. Accordingly, each of the golf clubs is independently disposed without colliding, interfering, crossing to each other. On the other hand, each of the gold clubs can be also readily withdrawn from the golf 4 1---11 clubs bag. Because each of the golf clubs can be readily recognized by its length, the user may correctly take the desired golf club for intended strike. Furthermore, the total number of the golf clubs can be readily counted. Besides, the partitioning bracket unit can be readily attached to the existing golf clubs bag and the user may conduct the assembling in do-it-yourself manner.
According to another aspect of the present invention, each of the golf clubs can be further positioned by a fixing tab and retainer such that each of the golf clubs can be firmly positioned without colliding all around. No matter the golf clubs bag is disposed vertically, horizontally, or slantly, each of the golf clubs is firmly positioned without moving. The assembling and disassembling of the fixing tabs and retainer can be readily conducted.
In order to achieve the object set forth, a partitioning bracket assembly for golf clubs bag in which the partitioning plates disposed at the top of the golf clubs bag is provided with a partitioning bracket unit for receiving the golf clubs therein. The partitioning bracket unit is configured with a circular disk shape and is defined with a plurality of openings thereof. According to the preferable embodiment, fourteen openings are provided. Each of the openings is provided with a circular shape at the upper and lower portions and the inner peripheral thereof. Each of the openings is ready for receiving one golf club therein. The partitioning bracket unit is provided with a pair of retaining grooves respectively at the peripheral and which are opposite to each other. Every three openings located at the middle and front area of the partitioning bracket unit is assigned to a sub-group and each of the sub-group is provided with a fixing tab for positioning the golf club which has disposed therein. The top surface of the fixing tab is provided with a handle for readily manipulating by the user. One side portion of the handle is provided with a retaining groove for retaining the shaft of the golf club therein. A retainer is further provided and a plurality of fixing tabs can be further positioned by the retainer. The retainer defines a pressing socket by which the fixing tabs are pressed. The pressing socket is further provided with a movable latch post. The latch post is provided with an olive flange with respect to the olive hole of the partitioning bracket unit such that the 6 latch post can be moved away from the lower portion of the olive hole or is disposed thereunder.

By this 16 arrangement, a plurality of fixing tabs 30 can be also pressed by the retainer 40. As a result, the fixing tabs 30 will not escape therefrom. If the user hopes to remove the retainer 40, the latch post cover 60 can be rotated through 90 degrees such that the olive flange 52 of the latch post 50 can be aligned with the olive hole 17. By this arrangement, the olive flange 52 can readily pass through the olive hole 17 and the retainer 40 is released therefrom.
When a plurality of golf clubs 12 are sequentially disposed into each of the openings I I the partitioning bracket unit 10, each of the golf clubs 12 can be readily fixed by the retaining groove 33 of the fixing tab 30.
Then the retainer 40 can be locked up such that each of the fixing tabs 30 can be positioned. Afterward, the bag cap of the golf clubs bag 20 can be enveloped thereon and each of the golf clubs 12 are further positioned. By this arrangement, no matter the golf clubs bag 20 is disposed vertically or horizontally or slantly or disposed onto the trunk of a car, each of the golf clubs will not collide with each other. Furthermore, since each of the golf clubs 12 is suitably isolated from each other, no noise can be heard and the golf clubs 12 can be further protected.
1 7 During the golf playing, the retainer 40 and the fixing tabs 30 can be removed and received within a small pocket. Then each of the golf clubs can be readily withdrawn therefrom. Even the retainer 40 and the fixing tabs 30 are removed, each of the golf clubs 12 is still separated from each other by the openings 11 of the partitioning bracket unit 10. As each of the openings 12 is provided with circular peripheral and the bottom is also provided with circular chamfer, the gold club 12 can be readily inserted and withdrawn. The golf club 12 can be disposed within the opening I I at any angle.
Since each of the openings 11 may receive only one golf club 12, the total number of the golf clubs 12 can be readily counted. Furthermore, each of the gold clubs 12 is reached to the bottom of the golf clubs bag 20, accordingly, each of the golf clubs 12 can be readily recognized without any mistake.
According to the present invention, only the front portion and the middle portion of the partitioning bracket unit 10 is provided with retaining tabs 30. This is specially designed for the wood since it is disposed within the openings 11 at rear portion of the partitioning bracket unit 10. According to the existing measurement, each of the wood is protected with a special protective bag on the head and the shaft to prevent the collide with the adjacent wood. As a result, the woods have been well protected and not fixing tab 30 is required. As a result, the fixing tabs 30 and retainer 40 for the woods can be eliminated. The partitioning bracket unit 10 is engaged onto the partitioning plates 21 and 22 of the conventional golf clubs bag 20. As a result, the user may simple purchase the partitioning bracket unit 10 to save money. The maker may can make the partitioning bracket unit 10 without modifying the golf clubs bag 20.
